You are not what you eat; you are what you absorb. Even if you take several calcium/magnesium tablets, if your body does not assimilate them, you will not reap their benefits.

This unique calcium/magnesium powdered drink is easily blended with liquid and quickly absorbed by the body. This is the newest technology, the leading edge of nutritional research and development. It is a scientific fact that the amount of mineral absorbed is more important than the quantity consumed. A mineral that is not absorbed cannot get into the bones to strengthen them. So absorption is an important way of measuring the benefits of calcium and magnesium.

All calcium and magnesium is not absorbed at the same rate. For example:

• Inorganic calcium is absorbed at 17%.
• Chelated calcium is absorbed at 44%. (This means that the chelate, which is calcium bound to an amino acid or protein, is almost three times as absorbable as the inorganic mineral).
• Inorganic magnesium is absorbed at 16%.
• Organic magnesium is absorbed at 87%. (This means that the chelate, which is magnesium bound to an amino acid or protein, is absorbed five times as much as the inorganic mineral).

Facts:

• Calcium is essential to strong bones and may prevent osteoporosis.
• Magnesium assists in the body's absorption of calcium.
• Boron may retard bone loss.
• Together, boron, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D help to prevent osteoporosis.
